Star Trek-Inspired NetDragon Headquarters in China

by

Lui Deijan, founder of Chinese game development company NetDragon, happens to be a huge fan of Star-Trek, and he has just commissioned the company’s recently completed headquarters, which was designed to look like the famed USS Enterprise of Star Trek. The 260-meter-length office structure took four years to complete, costing 600 million yuan (nearly $97 million USD), with TV network CBS sanctioning the rights for the Chinese company to model their office after the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E. Captured by drone, the architectural structure which pays homage to the popular sci-fi franchise is officially the only licensed star trek building in the world.
